Chicago,May 28.^The most sensational^developments of the Cronin investigation^so far were announced late to-night, in the^ahape of a ^ confession by Black, alias^Woodruff, in which be tell* the whole^story of his connection with Or. Cronin's^murder. It seems he vas not directly con^^nected with the murder itself, but simply^acted as the driver of the wagon which dis^^poned of-Uitt dead man's body. Woodruff^ha* been taken by Capt. -Schanek and his^men to the scene of tae murder, to the^sewer where the body was found and the^place where the trunk was first seen. He^gave the driving directions to the detect^^ives and in every instance located the ex-^art places. A cording to his confession lie^was directed by those who had charge of^the conspiracy, and whose names Capt.^Schaack reserve* for reasons that^are palpable. to go to Dean's^livery stable, aud there he would^obtain a horse and wagou. He was in^^structed U^ drive out lo the neighborhood^of the Carlson cottage aiid aMo knew for^what purpose he was to go there. He ar^^rived at 'he cottage about twenty miuutes^before I)r. Cronin was driven up. Thiee-^'{uitrters ot an hour after Or. Cronin en-^t.f.-.i the cottage the man who is known as^Williams opened ihe front d tor of the cot^^tage and signalled Woodruff, who a: oac-e^^ 'rove up. and assisted by a third man the^trunk was loaded into the wagon and^Woodruff was directed to drive eastward^t- - the lake, at a certain point VVoodtut) kM^designated to Capt .Schaack. The trunk and^lt.^ contents would have been deposited in^ihe lake had not an interruption come in^the shape ot the approach oi a policeman.^Tata caused a change of plans, aud imiue-^diate steps were taken to get out of the offi^^cer's way. A circuitous route finally^brought them again to the Evanston road,^and as they had been now driving for near^^ly an hour with the ghastly load, one of^the men suggested the sewer. They^stopped at Kitty-ninth street, the top *as^taken off the manhole and the trunk lifted^from the wagon. It was impossible^to put the trunk into the manhole. As the^key had been lost, the top was kicked in^and the body put in the sewer and the^trunk again placed in the wagon. They^then started again for the cottage, intend^^ing there to burn the trunk, but on reacn-^ing the spot where the trunk was found^they heard a noise of wagon wheels, aud^throwing the trunk out of the wagon drove^rapidly away in another direction. At^Kulleiton avenue Woodruff's companions^bade hi^ good night and left him.

I,a it a m ik. Wyo., May a*^ Judge Corn^has rendered an important decision in the^district court at Ktwlins, aolding that Ed^^munds' right of dower is void in any terri^^tory except t'tah. Mr*. Amanda W.^France sued for a dower in all the realty^now in the hands of assignees which for^^merly belonged to her late husband, James^France. 'I he action was brought under^the section of the Edmunds act w hich pro^^vides that a widow shall be endowed of a^third part of all the lands whereof her^husband may be possessed at any time^during their marriage, unless she^shall have lawfully released her^r'ght thereto. The legislature of 1^7^^ah.dished the right of dower in Wyoming,^which before that time existed under the^common law. It was claimed by the attor^^ney s tor Mrs. France that the Edmunds act^revived this right in all the territories and^renier-d null and void the repealing stat^^ute. The defendants held that the particu^^lar section of the act quoted above applied^to i 'tah alone, and they were sustained by^the court. A long decision was retdered,^in which the construction of the act is care^^fully anal) zed by Judge Corn. This is the^hrst tune that a legal decision on this ques^^tion has ever been rendered.

A prominent government official^said to a reporter that ther-- was no doubt^the Canadian sealers would strive to hunt^in Behring sea, despite the American^war vessels. The British men-of-war^he said, would not make any move to pre^^vent the sailing of these vessels, as by so^doing they would in a measure cuunten-^ance American claims to exclusive sover^^eignty in the disputed waters. On the^other hand if any Canadian sealers were^taken by American war ships British ves^sels would uot try to recapture them, as^that would be the signal for open hostili^^ties.

Chicauo,May ^Ss. ^ Dr-tfttive Hanifi^Coughlin, Patrick O. Sullivan, the ice man.^and Frank .1. Black, alias Woodruff, were^indicted by theKraud jury tbi* evening for^tbe murder of l^r. Cronin. Tbi* result was^reached alter an investigation which began^at no.-', i.id lasted seven hours, during^whicl. t A.^ dozen witnesses were examined^and a mass of evidence considered. The^three prisoners were included in one indict^^ment, to which there were three counts,^one charging them with killing l^r Cronin^with a blunt instrument, tbe second alleg^^ing the use of a sharp instrument,tbe third,^instruments and means unknown. No^evidence was introdoced to show a con^^spiracy, and Dr. Cronin's private pai^ers^were not placed before tne grand jury.^The witnesses who were called w^-re those^who^e stories have f^een told in the |tm^^ ate. Attorney lyougnecker thought i^adviralile to lighten the coil* into wti.ch^the three prisoners have already been^diawn and fasten them with indictments,^probably to prevent any attempt to secure^the relea.se ot one or more of them on bail.^The grand jur^ took oDly one vote after^hearing ihe witnen.-es. and that was unani^^mous for the indictment of all the r r e^prisoners .Mates Attorney Longnecker^said to-Dlght no mention of Can na ^^ e.^allairs had been made in the jury room.^The charge of con-piracy and Dr. Cronin's^paper* will be taken up later, prubaoly^before another grand jury.
TheTunes in a late addition this morn^^ing printed a statement that P. O. Sullivan,^the ice man. had made a full confession^and given to the police tbe names ot every^one he knew to !^^ implicated in the mur^^der of Or. Cron n. Sullivxr.. the story^says, was neatly trapped. ^^^^ after day^he was subjected to the (JMMMM of the^officers, and day after day he lied. The^police pumped Miliivan until he had con^^tradicted himself frequently, then they^gave t.iin t n. ugh of the truth to show they^knew .. re than he thought they did. Tbe^next ^! ^ Sullivan changed hi* tune ami^more contradiction* followed. This lying^continued until yesterday, then he decided^to tell the truth. Iu the presence of Ma^or^Boldenweck. of l.akeview, and the police^officers, Sullivan revealed the whole plot^and the names ot all those connected with^the great crime.
MayorBoldenweck was seen this morn^^ing by a reporter and waa asked for a con^^firmation of the above statement. The^mayor declared it was nut true; but never^theless much credence is given to tbe story,^as the authorities have not scrupled here^^tofore to deny the actual tacts for fear the^case would be prejudiced.
Theice man Sullivan, and the police offi^^cials, let-1 are that the statement publishvd^this morning to the tffect that he had made^a confession lajing bare the entire details^of a plot tor tbe murder of Dr. Cronin is^false. An afternoon paper professe* to^have information to the effect that nothing^like a sweeping confession was secured^fr- m him. An admission, it is said, was^obtained that one of the men who hired tbe^Carlson cottage, had sought work from^him and bad been frequently about hi*^place: that he told thia young man of tbe^terms uf hi* contract with Cronin, and that^tbe young man could have secured one of^his cards if be bad so desired. It will be^remembered that one ot Sullivan'* cards^was used to lure Dr. Cronin from his^home.
Tnecoroner'* jury, after viewing the^bloodstained cottage at Lakeview and tbe^place where the body was found, adjourned^the inquest til! to-morrow.
Mr..11 am burgher, a widow living at^l^sj Hiversy afreet, has turned over to tbe^police articles of clothing which may have^belonged to Dr. Cronin. Her two boy*,^aged V and 11. while playing in the w.mds^Sunday about a mile from where Croniu's^body was found, discovered In tbe bashes^a woolen undershirt, a pair of drawers and^a vest. Nothing was found in the pockH*^of the vest to aid in the ldent'ti -atmn and^from the fact that tbe clothing was^scattered about it 1* supposed it bad
previouslybeen overhauled. The boys^did not tell their mother of the discovery^until that night. On bearing it she sent^them back to get the clothing and notified^the police. Capt. Schaack's men, it is^claimed, cautioned her and the boy* not to^^ay a word about the find to any one, and^it leaked out by accident. A reporter^called on Mrs. Hamburg to-nig't, but she^^aid she bad been Instructed not to tal k.^The police official* were equally mute.
TbeDaily New* ha* tbe following: De^^tective Kob^ r: Bruce, who ha* been con^^ducing a private agency in this city,^walked into Lieut- Elliot** office this morn^^ing and said that several month* ago Al^derm an McConnack offered him fl. 100 to^kill Dr. Crooin. Brace, who bad ja*t re^^turned from a three month*' ^tay in Texas,^says McCo.ruark paid him 8100 in advance^and agreed to pay the remaining $1,000^when the iob was done. Bru-e declare*^McCormack told him to feign sickness in^his office and then send for Dr. Cronin and^kill him. Bru-e said he took the $ 100 and^spent it for liquor, and never made a move^toward carrying out the contract. Bruce^bears rather an unsavory character^and the police do not place much reliance^in his story. He has been in numerous^scrapes in this city.

W., under the direction of Mr. Pat-^toe, who formerly had charge of a group^of Cotnstock mines, in Nevada, created a^boom in tbe silver market. Tbe shares of^the company rose from fh~5 to ('2.014 in^one month. This excited speculation in^other properties, which soon came to grief.^The consul says modern American pro-^cesses are wanted in Australia, and that^the handsome profit realized at Broken^Hill is the result of the help of American^experts.

Rev. Hoo|^er'^ Kelliflou^Keeord.
NewYork special: The Rev. John T.^Hooper, pastor of the North New York^Congregational church in Mott Haven,^eloped on Friday with Miss Mary Curtiss,^n years oid, a daughter of Charles Curtiss,^vice-principal of the public school on Uoth^street. Mrs. Curtiss, Mary's mother, re^^ceived a letter from her daughter on .Satur^^day night, dated at Union Hilt, V J., an^^nouncing that she had been married to^Hooper. The elopement has creaft great^excitement in the church parish. Mr.^Hooper was called from Kingston, V Y .^to the pastorate of .-sl Paul's reformed^church, Mott Haven, in January, HI lie^aec-pted the call, and from the nrst his^actions created no small amount of gossip^He is good-looking and suave, how^^ever, and seemed to be popular^with the younger element in his church.^Within a few months after assnucnir^charge of St- Paul's, Hooper's wife, who^had left him some time previous'}-, began^proceedings against him in California aid^won her suit, to which Hooper made no^defense. He went to California at therm .^however, to place himself within the juris^diction of the court granting the dn rt ^,^and thus prevent himself from again mar^rying. W'! en he returned to Mott Han n.^lie found that gossip*' tongues had been in^dustriously wagging during his ah*^and that in consequence his reputation had^suffered. Mrs. Curtiss, with whom he^boarded, requested him to find anoUSM^borne, but he declined to move, so Mrs.^Curtiss said yesterday, until she actually-^ordered him out of the house.
Inexplaining her course yesterday, Mrs^Curtiss said that she did not think II. op. re^^actions had been such as iicghi have b en^expected of a clergyman, and she dm o i^like hi* attentions to her daughter. A per^Mr. Hooper left the house he continurd t..^call on the daughter until refused admit^^tance by her paren s. After that he d^to meet her in the morning and accomprny^baa* down to the normal college, where she^was a student, returning wi'h ht ruitl.e^afternoon. The girl is a pretty blonde and^tbe minister a tall, dark and well formed^man of 30. The couple afracb d attention^and their clandestine meetings soon came^to the ears of Miss Ciir^ss' parents, who^were unable to prevent them.
InDecem'ier last tli- gossip about^Hooper had become so strong that the^church was obliged to take cognizai.i* ol^it. He was arraigned before the consis^^tory on the charge of l}ing and of other^offenses. He was convicted but refused to^resign as requested and an appeal was^taken. As a result of the appeal Hooper^was suspends d. He hail in the congrega^^tion, however, a large num!^er of friends^who believed that he was beingp^ rsecuti d.^When he proj^oaed. therefore, ti e estab^^lishment ot an independent church his^followers gave the appearance ot | aaaa-l^to the project at the outset. St. Paul's con-^gregation was divided ar.d the llwaMrs in^the parish have been notorious ever since.
Mrs.Curtiss detei mined to take her^daughter Mary from the city, and called^for her bv appointment at the college at 2^o'clock Friday afternoon. Her daughter^was not tbere and a hasty investigation^showed that Hooper was also away. Al^^though the conclusion that there had been^an elopement was natural, Mrs. CtBlUss^suffertd greatly until her surpene was re^lieved by her daughter's letter. \ meet lag^of the North New York Congregational^church, as the Hooper taction of ^st. Paul's^waa called, has been announced for. Th.irs^day night next, when it is probable that \^Hooper will be dismissed. M. Pant's has^naver taken any other action in his case^subsequent to h's suspension.
